5/6 speed man trans??????????
« on: August 11, 2006 - 08:39:46 AM »
Has anyone put in a 5 or 6 speed in an E- body (70 Challenger) That they are screaming happy about??? Searched the past threads and found lots of discussion about them, but nothing concrete. I can buy an 833 Hemi box and put an overdrive behind it, but Tranny + unit = same dollars as new after market trans  :swaying: Sure could use some help on this one. This one is big $$$$$ got to get right the first time!

Thanks

Hey there Falcon50Flyer, that looks like one excellent recommendation, making me really want to convert my 727 to a stick.  I could run my 3.91's at highway speed.  :wow:
